Although I don't know what the hell I'm talking about, someone who does might say those count as "breaks".
People aren't being honest if they say Xavier has not had good fortune in the tournament. They have also taken advantage of it and had some really good wins. Credit to them.
UC had good fortune this past year, but blew that opportunity along with that 22 point lead.
We blew a 22 point lead?! When did this happen? Why did you all not say anything before now? This is shocking!!!!!
It's not like the board has been littered with people complaining about it for the past 9 months or so. Because, surely people would want to talk about that without end.
I mean, that's something you don't forget, you don't live down. Even if we were to walk away with a national title after this season, we should still go over and over such an event; not unlike a masochistic-lunatic rolling back and forth across hot coals in some bizarre mix of misery and ecstasy without end.
We should scour every aspect of the program and even the coaching staff's recruiting for the past decade or so, and talk about how we need rip it's heart out and salt the earth where we bury it, so it never again grows back and casts it's hideous shadow on our program.
Why, such a game deserves to override everything that we've ever accomplished in the sport of men's round ball!
We should howl at the moon into future seasons underway, even when the key players from said roster involved in this hypothetical loss, which again, I'm sure never happened; because certainly we all would have heard about it by now, graduate and go off to their professional playing days.
Just kidding of course....
I know you're not one of those people but
sick of hearing about it already.
